A $52-Million Month
As Barack Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, said in an e-mail to Obama supporters, the campaign has developed a "very aggressive strategy" that requires aggressive fundraising efforts as well. Judging by Team Obama's tally for the month of June, those efforts are quite literally paying off.

TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARThe New York Times:
Senator Barack Obama raised $52 million in June, his campaign announced Thursday, recording his second-best fund-raising month of the year through an aggressive mix of small and large contributions that produced more than twice the amount raised by Senator John McCain.
After becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee last month, Mr. Obama also helped the Democratic National Committee markedly increase its fund-raising to $22.4 million in June. Together, the Obama campaign and the party have about $92.3 million in the bank, which is slightly less than Republicans, who began July with about $95 million.
The storytellers of chaos tried to manipulate the political and media narrative in 2025, but independent journalism exposed what they tried to hide.
When you read Truthdig, you see through the illusion.
